I can't even begin to tell you how much I enjoy altering items. I have altered so many things! Sometimes I am very challenged by how to alter a particular item but I think that is what I love the most....the challenge! I find my items to alter in many places such as rummage sales, the thrift store, flea markets, or the local craft store. So my challenge to you is to find something you have layout around the house and alter it! It could be as simple as altering a can of hairspray! But just find something and give it a try!

Hi Lisa!Altering objects has a great connection to what I do in jewelry...finding treasures in someone's jewelry box or flea market gives me limitless possibilities. And my personal favorite is adding that unexpected element, that piece that is utilitarian (like an old key) and incorporating it into the design. It elevates the ordinary to the extraordinary and that is true art! Erin

About Me

Welcome to the Paper Fashions Boutique blog! When you visit our blog you will find sneak peeks for upcoming scrapbook kits, tips, and many other fun things! I want this blog to be a fun place to visit and learn about what is happening at Paper Fashions Boutique. I also want it to be a place where you share with me what type of kits you love, ideas for future kits, and feedback about what you want to see on the blog.
A rotating variety of kits will be available each month. This will include layout, mini album, altered item/home decor, and card kits. Each month will feature two distinctive scrapbook kits!
I take great pride in offering exceptional customer service and look forward to getting to know each of you as I provide scrapbook project kits for years to come!
I will release at least two new kits to choose from. You do not have to subscribe or purchas a certain amount of kits. You just purchase the kits that you want. But remember, I create a limited number of kits and when they are gone, they are gone! After kits sell out each month the instructions will be available for purchase.
